Poems by Madison Julius Cawein
The Isle Of Voices
... Then black as blood through streaming scud ...
Flowers
... Where grows the rose of fadeless Grace ...
The Dream Of Dread
... To the lips, like the serpent's, that steer it ...
Halloween
... And heard, like the leaf-lisp, her tears and her sighs ...
A Guinevere
... Were they placed, think you, perchance, ...
A Gray Day
... IV. Stretched taunt on the blades of grass, ...
La Jeunesse Et La Mort
... A flow'r that in Earth's garden grows,-- ...
The Redbird
... And I stood listening like a hind, who hears ...
A Last Word
... and stand A handsbreadth nearer Heaven and what is God! ...
Helen
... Have you marked them, brimmed with laughter's ...
Standing-Stone Creek
... On which, boy-like, the southwind bounds, ...
The Headless Horseman
... Eyes and nostrils streamed with fire, ...
At The Corregidors
... "She will drop from thy balcony's rail, my sweet! ...
Carmen
... And 'round each arm's fair thigh one fold, ...
The Tree-Toad
... III Minstrel of moisture! silent when high noon ...
